The Historic City of Ayutthaya, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is 1.6 km away, and Wat Phra Sri Sanphet, once the royal temple within the palace grounds, sits nearby.

The riverside is a natural place to end the day after the temple visits, and the old town's lanes are good for walking between the sights.
